Council tables Green Light Energy contract amid edits over easement, insurance and rent
Summary
Council discussed proposed contract edits with Green Light Energy that removed a permanent easement, addressed generator and insurance jurisdiction, and increased rent; because key contract language remained under negotiation the council voted to table the item for a future meeting.
Council reviewed proposed edits to a draft agreement with Green Light Energy at the Feb. 17 meeting and decided to table the matter while staff finalizes contract language.
A staff member said the borough removed a proposed permanent easement and instead gave the company rights to run lines for the contract duration; staff also raised generator language and increased proposed rent to about $500. The staff member described the changes as acceptable and said the company has asked for the proposed edits. Council members also asked that insurance and litigation jurisdiction be set to Pennsylvania rather than another state. Because several items required finalization, Larry moved to table the agreement and the motion carried.
No formal vote tally on the contract was recorded in the transcript; council instructed staff to continue negotiating with the company and return a finalized agreement for approval.
